Taking grading and the "seeing power" to the next level

Newtec's optical sorting machine for potatoes, model Celox-P-UHD, is designed to sort potatoes by size, shape and quality in a single-stage process. The machine sorts washed potatoes directly, eliminating the need for pre-grading and minimising the need for manual labor, whilst ensuring consistent quality output and high throughput.

The performance of our new generation Celox-P-UHD has significantly improved and the advantages are numerous, including an expanded tracking area, increased capacity, and higher grading accuracy. The addition of the specialized computing power provided by the Hailo accelerator has resulted in improving the machine's ability to deal more effectively with foreign objects and abnormally-looking products, raising the machine's accuracy and sorting results to new heights.

With these advancements, we're setting new standards for potato processing efficiency and quality.

We can optimize the value of each of your potatoes by sorting them in the most profitable way.
